  Case: Recovery
In our school, endless opportunities to recover assignments are warranted until desired grade is achieved. Should there be a max score students should be able to achieve after the first attempt? Does this prepare our students for after high school?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
My biggest concern with this I have in my own district as well. A standards based report card would help tremendously with that as opposed to giving a student a numerical grade. Students have to take responsibility at some point and time, or why bother with the effort of they know they will receive the graded assignment again. You could make 50 the lowest score. That will keep students from hitting the bottom and not being able to find their way out of the hole.
